To multiply fractions, you need to multiply the numerators together and multiply the denominators together. So, in this case:
12 1/5 × 1/12
First, convert the mixed number 12 1/5 into an improper fraction. To do this, multiply the whole number (12) by the denominator of the fraction (5) and add the numerator (1):
12 × 5 + 1 = 60 + 1 = 61
So, 12 1/5 can be written as the improper fraction 61/5.
Now, let's multiply:
61/5 × 1/12
Multiply the numerators (61 × 1) and the denominators (5 × 12):
61 × 1 = 61 5 × 12 = 60
Therefore, the answer is 61/60.
